Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of float glass production technology, and in particular to a silo cleaning pickaxe. Background Technology

[0002] The float glass production process involves molten glass continuously flowing from a furnace and floating on the surface of a relatively dense molten tin. Under the influence of gravity and surface tension, the molten glass spreads and flattens on the tin surface, forming a smooth upper and lower surface. After hardening and cooling, it is guided onto a transition roller table. The rollers on the table rotate, pulling the glass strip out of the tin bath and into an annealing furnace. After annealing and cutting, the float glass product is obtained.

[0003] In float glass production, the feeder used in the production line is a crucial piece of machinery in the melting process. The feeding speed is interlocked with the glass liquid level, and the thickness of the glass layer is adjusted by controlling the angle of the regulating gate. Existing feeders are prone to caking in the hopper, leading to feeding difficulties. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a hopper cleaning tool, which aims to solve the technical problem that clumps of material easily form in the hopper of the feeding machine during the production process.

[0005] This application provides a silo cleaning tool, which includes a hand handle, an adapter plate, and multiple cleaning hooks. One side of the adapter plate is fixedly connected to the hand handle, and the multiple cleaning hooks are installed on the other side of the adapter plate. The multiple cleaning hooks are circumferentially distributed, and there is a gap between adjacent cleaning hooks.

[0006] In one embodiment, the hopper cleaning handle further includes a first reinforcing rod, one end of which is connected to the hand handle, and the other end of which is connected to the adapter plate.

[0007] In one embodiment, there are two or more first reinforcing rods, and all the first reinforcing rods are spaced apart along the length of the adapter plate at one end.

[0008] In one embodiment, there are two or more first reinforcing rods, all of which are located on the back of the cleaning hook.

[0009] In one embodiment, the hopper cleaning hook further includes a second reinforcing rod connected to the back of the plurality of cleaning hooks.

[0010] In one embodiment, one end of the second reinforcing rod is connected to the leftmost cleaning hook, and the other end of the second reinforcing rod is connected to the rightmost cleaning hook.

[0011] In one embodiment, the second reinforcing rod is arc-shaped, and the plurality of cleaning hooks are distributed circumferentially around the center of the second reinforcing rod.

[0012] In one embodiment, the cleaning hook includes a first straight rod portion and a second straight rod portion, one end of the first straight rod portion is connected to the adapter plate, the other end of the first straight rod portion is connected to the second straight rod portion substantially perpendicularly, and the end of the second straight rod portion is located on the same side as the first straight rod portion.

[0031] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 This application provides a silo cleaning tool. The silo cleaning tool includes a hand handle 100, an adapter plate 200, and a plurality of cleaning hooks 300. One side of the adapter plate 200 is fixedly connected to the hand handle 100, and the plurality of cleaning hooks 300 are installed on the other side of the adapter plate 200. The plurality of cleaning hooks 300 are circumferentially distributed, and there is a gap between two adjacent cleaning hooks 300.

[0032] The operator holds the handle 100 and operates multiple cleaning hooks 300 to comb through the feeder's hopper, breaking up clumps of material and preventing blockages. The circularly distributed cleaning hooks 300 allow for faster and wider coverage during cleaning, grabbing and breaking up multiple clumps of material from the hopper at once, significantly improving cleaning efficiency and reducing time. The spacing between the cleaning hooks 300 allows small materials to pass through during cleaning, reducing mechanical stress caused by large-area material interception by the cleaning tool. Compared to the handle 100 directly connecting to the cleaning hooks 300, the adapter plate 200 increases the connection area, facilitating the assembly of multiple cleaning hooks 300 onto the adapter plate 200 for secure connection to the handle 100.

[0033] Specifically, the handheld lever 100 is made of stainless steel or a high-temperature alloy, possessing high strength and good corrosion resistance, making it suitable for high-temperature environments while ensuring structural stability during prolonged use. Simultaneously, the stainless steel or high-temperature alloy lever has relatively low thermal conductivity, reducing the heat received by the operator's hands due to heat conduction and improving operational safety.

[0034] Specifically, the adapter plate 200 is a high-temperature resistant alloy plate or ceramic plate, which has excellent high-temperature resistance and corrosion resistance, and can protect the adapter plate 200 from corrosion.

[0035] Specifically, the cleaning hook 300 is a high-temperature resistant alloy hook or a hard alloy hook, which has high hardness and wear resistance, making it easy to frequently contact and break up clumps of material, reducing wear and deformation.

[0036] In some embodiments, combined with Figure 3 and Figure 4 The hopper cleaning hook also includes a first reinforcing rod 410. One end of the first reinforcing rod 410 is connected to the hand handle 100, and the other end is connected to the adapter plate 200. The first reinforcing rod 410 directly connects the hand handle 100 and the adapter plate 200, forming a more stable triangular support structure, which greatly improves the stability and rigidity of the hopper cleaning hook during use. The first reinforcing rod 410 can effectively share the load of clumps deposited on the cleaning hook 300, reducing the pressure borne by the hand handle 100 and the adapter plate 200 alone.

[0037] In one embodiment, combined with Figure 3 and Figure 4 The number of first reinforcing rods 410 is two or more, and all the first reinforcing rods 410 are distributed at intervals along the length of the adapter plate 200 near one end, forming a multi-point support structure. This structure can more effectively distribute the stress and load generated during the cleaning process and prevent damage caused by excessive force on a single point of the first reinforcing rod 410. As the number of first reinforcing rods 410 increases, the load borne by each first reinforcing rod 410 will decrease accordingly, thereby reducing the wear and fatigue of individual components and improving the overall durability of the cleaning tool.

[0038] When cleaning up clumps, the cleaning hooks 300 at different positions and angles may be subjected to different forces and torques. The distribution of multiple first reinforcing rods 410 can balance these forces, making the overall structure more stable, reducing vibration and shaking, and making the operation smoother and more precise.

[0039] In one embodiment, combined with Figure 3 and Figure 4 There are two or more first reinforcing rods 410, all of which are located on the back of the cleaning hooks 300. This provides additional support for the multiple cleaning hooks 300, enhancing their resistance to bending and torsion during the cleaning process and preventing deformation or damage caused by uneven stress. Since the first reinforcing rods 410 are located on the back of the cleaning hooks 300, they do not obstruct the cleaning process.

[0040] Specifically, the first reinforcing rod 410 is welded and fixed to the handheld rod 100 and the adapter plate 200, respectively. Compared with separate connection methods such as threaded connections, fastener connections, or snap-fit ​​connections, welding, as a high-strength connection method, can ensure a firm connection between the first reinforcing rod 410, the handheld rod 100, and the adapter plate 200, reducing operational errors and safety hazards caused by loose or deformed components. Compared with one-piece molding, the separate manufacturing of the first reinforcing rod 410, the handheld rod 100, and the adapter plate 200 reduces manufacturing difficulty and costs.

[0041] Specifically, the first reinforcing rod 410 is a stainless steel rod or a high-strength alloy steel rod, which has high strength and rigidity to withstand the load of the clumps deposited on the cleaning hook 300, while maintaining stable physical properties in high-temperature environments, ensuring the stability and rigidity of the entire cleaning hand.

[0042] In some embodiments, combined with Figure 2 and Figure 4 The hopper cleaning hook also includes a second reinforcing rod 420, which is connected to the back of multiple cleaning hooks 300. This enhances the overall integrity of the hooks 300, providing additional support and reinforcement. It strengthens the hooks' resistance to bending, torsion, and tension during the cleaning process, preventing deformation or breakage due to excessive force. Thanks to the reinforcement of the second reinforcing rod 420, the cleaning hooks 300 can operate more stably during cleaning, reducing inaccurate cleaning or leakage of clumped material caused by vibration and shaking.

[0043] In one embodiment, combined with Figure 2 and Figure 4 One end of the second reinforcing rod 420 is connected to the leftmost cleaning hook 300, and the other end of the second reinforcing rod 420 is connected to the rightmost cleaning hook 300, which significantly enhances the rigid connection between the multiple cleaning hooks 300, further enhances the integrity of the multiple cleaning hooks 300, and achieves force balance among the multiple cleaning hooks 300.

[0044] In one embodiment, combined with Figure 2 and Figure 4 The second reinforcing rod 420 is arc-shaped, and multiple cleaning hooks 300 are distributed circumferentially around the center of the second reinforcing rod 420, forming a stable support system. This allows the cleaning tool to resist forces and torques from all directions during the cleaning process, enhancing the overall structural stability and rigidity. Because the multiple cleaning hooks 300 are circumferentially distributed, the forces generated during cleaning are more evenly distributed across the second reinforcing rod 420 and the entire cleaning tool, reducing damage caused by excessive localized stress and improving tool durability. Simultaneously, since the cleaning hooks 300 are distributed around the center, they can clean the hopper from different angles and positions, more thoroughly removing clumps and improving cleaning quality.

[0045] Specifically, the second reinforcing rod 420 is welded and fixed to the back of the multiple cleaning hooks 300, ensuring a firm connection between the second reinforcing rod 420 and the cleaning hooks 300, forming a more stable support structure. Compared with separate connection methods such as threaded connections, fastener connections, and snap-fit ​​connections, the welded connection method reduces wear problems caused by loose parts or frequent disassembly. Compared with one-piece molding, the second reinforcing rod 420 and the multiple cleaning hooks 300 are manufactured separately, reducing manufacturing difficulty and facilitating flexible selection of the number of cleaning hooks 300.

[0046] In some embodiments, combined with Figure 2 and Figure 4 The cleaning hook 300 includes a first straight rod portion 310 and a second straight rod portion 320. One end of the first straight rod portion 310 is connected to the adapter plate 200, and the other end of the first straight rod portion 310 is connected to the second straight rod portion 320 approximately perpendicularly. The end of the second straight rod portion 320 is located on the same side as the first straight rod portion 310. Based on this, the end of the second straight rod portion 320 can be inserted into the hopper more precisely, thus more easily impacting and breaking up agglomerated materials. The first straight rod portion 310, as the main support part, is connected to the adapter plate 200, providing a stable foundation for the entire cleaning hook 300. The second straight rod portion 320, as the gripping part, is connected perpendicularly to the first straight rod portion 310, forming a stable triangular support structure, enhancing the overall stability of the cleaning hook 300.

[0047] Specifically, the first straight rod portion 310 and the second straight rod portion 320 are integrally formed, which improves the overall strength of the cleaning hook 300, avoids connection gaps, and avoids assembly errors.

[0048] In some embodiments, combined with Figure 1 and Figure 3 The handheld lever 100 includes a first connecting rod 110 and a second connecting rod 120. The first connecting rod 110 is adjustablely mounted on one end of the second connecting rod 120, and the other end of the second connecting rod 120 is connected to the adapter plate 200. The adjustable design of the first connecting rod 110 allows the overall length of the handheld lever 100 to be adjusted according to the operator's height, the width of the work area, and the specific needs of the cleaning task. This helps the operator maintain a comfortable operating posture in different working environments, improving work efficiency. The adjustable design allows the operator to quickly adjust the height and angle of the handheld lever 100 without frequent tool changes or complex adjustments, improving cleaning efficiency. The operator can maintain a more natural and comfortable grip posture, reducing hand and body fatigue caused by prolonged work.

[0049] In one embodiment, the first connecting rod 110 is threaded to the second connecting rod 120. The threaded connection allows for precise positional adjustment of the first connecting rod 110 relative to the second connecting rod 120. The operator can easily adjust the threaded connection length of the first connecting rod 110 as needed to adapt to different working environments and cleaning tasks.

[0050] In one embodiment, a handheld crossbeam 111 is provided at the end of the first connecting rod 110. The handheld crossbeam 111 provides a wider and more comfortable grip surface, helping to reduce hand fatigue when the operator holds the tool for extended periods. The design of the handheld crossbeam 111 helps to increase the operator's control over the tool, allowing the tool to be held more stably in the required position and angle during the cleaning process.

[0051] Specifically, the end of the second connecting rod 120 furthest from the adapter plate 200 has a crossbeam receiving portion 121. In use, the operator holds the handheld crossbeam 111 with one hand and grasps the crossbeam receiving portion 121 with the other hand, simultaneously holding the first connecting rod 110 and the second connecting rod 120 with both hands. This ensures the stability of the handheld rod 100, reduces tool instability caused by hand shaking during cleaning, and improves the accuracy and efficiency of cleaning.

[0052] Furthermore, when not in use, the first connecting rod 110 can be screwed into the second connecting rod 120 until the hand-held crossbeam 111 is stored in the crossbeam receiving portion 121, shortening the length of the hand-held rod 100 for easy storage and preventing the hand-held crossbeam 111 from protruding and being exposed, thus improving storage safety.

[0053] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
